Abstract

The validity of joint attention assessment in school-aged children with ASD is unclear (Lord, Jones, Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry 53(5):490–509, 2012). This study examined the feasibility and validity of a parent-report measure of joint attention related behaviors in verbal children and adolescents with ASD. Fifty-two children with ASD and 34 controls were assessed with the Childhood Joint Attention Rating Scale (C-JARS). The C-JARS exhibited internally consistency, α = 0.88, and one factor explained 49% of the scale variance. Factor scores correctly identified between 88 and 94% of the children with ASD and 62–82% of controls. These scores were correlated with the ADOS-2, but not other parent-report symptom measures. The C-JARS appears to assess a unique dimension of the social-phenotype of children with ASD.

The evidence for a Diagnostic Group difference on the C-JARS joint attention factor score was also observed in a follow-up analyses that included the combined Conner’s Inattentive and Hyperactivity scores as a second covariate in the ANCOVA but with a lower effect size estimate, F (1,75) = 10.5, p < .002, eta2 = 0.12.
